The AWG520’s unique design combines a
graphical editing display with powerful out-
put capabilities to simplify the creation of
arbitrary and complex waveforms and
enable easy on-screen waveform editing.
With the AWG520’s many built-in intuitive
and powerful features, you can easily develop
and edit custom waveforms. Option 03 adds
an independent 10-bit-wide digital data
port that can be used in conjunction with
marker outputs for data generation up to
14-bits wide at up to 1 GHz (14-bits,
AWG520). Direct waveform transfer
capability makes the AWG520 the perfect
complement to selected Tektronix
oscilloscopes.
The AWG520 can easily generate telecom
signals which complement masks from a
digital oscilloscope.
